Cool stuff Jason, thanks for sharing! I especially like the Danz Borin, that looks fantastic. And I really like the cantina environment, I seem to remember that from one of your photonovels.

Can you clarify which customs are new/qualify for random prizes?

[jlw515]

The only customs that are NOT new are Lirin Car'n and Thuku.

All of the following ARE NEW:
Danz Borin, Garouf Lafoe, Debnoli, Merc Sunlet, and Jawa.

And I am currently working on a pair of ladies who were also in the Cantina! I'll be posting pictures of those as soon as they are finished.

What a great batch of enries! Danz Borin looks really good. The vintage ACE helmet is a great call. I own a couple of them but I dare not use them. So cool to see one used for your creation. Your paintwork on Danz is professional looking too. My favorite of your entries is Garouf Lafoe. I love the Gung HO head and the Endor hat. Thats a great looking combination. If it were mine I would consider possibly weathering the figure a little but still, really nice blend of pieces. I wouldn't sweat the goggles, he doesn't need them. Believe it or not, I was considering making this character when I began but I chose Wuher and Baniss along with two other who have yet to be finished. Thanks for sharing all of the figures!

Hello everybody. I am new on this forum but I am customizing Star Wars figures and also Marvel Universe figures (same scale than Star Wars).
Most of my customs can be seen there for Star Wars

Sorry it is in French.

Of course Cantina patrons make a big part of my work. I don't know if these are worth for Yakfinities since I made them last year but I show them below.

Pilots/Spacemen


Second Duros (on the left)

Labria (seating) and Bith

Garouf Lafoe

Jenny

Yerka Mig

Swilla Corey

Hrcheck Kal Fas (remade to be more movie accurate) and Rycard Ryjerd

Davelynn Schmee

Ariq Joanson

Djas Puhr modified sothat he can seat

Debnoli and correlian pirate

Tonnika sisters (only the green one is finished)

[stephane]

And the last one I finished today is Tzizvvt , the fly-alien who can be used for the challenge if the others are too old.

Lots of good figures there. Garouf Lafoe looks really good. I like the parts choices that you used with that one. Also your second Duros is very movie accurate, Love the parts choices. The one I made isn't completely movie accurate and I love viewing one that has the right colors. Also the Davylinn Shmee figure looks good. He was one of Jabba's thugs right? He reminds me of Hagrid from the Harry potter movies.

Thanks. body( Han Solo) , Jacket (Ponda Baba), arms (Luke), head and legs (German Soldier Indiana Jones).

Also your second Duros is very movie accurate, Love the parts choices. The one I made isn't completely movie accurate and I love viewing one that has the right colors. .

Complete body = Luke and Milliput sculpt for his neck.

Also the Davylinn Shmee figure looks good. He was one of Jabba's thugs right? He reminds me of Hagrid from the Harry potter movies.

Yes he is one of Jabba's Henchmen you can better see when Han meets Young Jabba in the Special Edition. He can be seen also in the Cantina at the rear of the bar on the left. Made from a POTC figure (forgot his name), coat (cut) and boots from Han Endor and milliput sculpt for head and beard.

A photo of the display of my cantina guys around the bar. I am working also on small displays of the different tables.
